study of structure of body parts and their relationships to one another

2

What are the subdivisions of Anatomy:
a. microscopic
b. gross or macroscopic
c. developmental
d. all of the above
e. none of the above

d. all of the above

3

What is Cytology?

study of cells

4

What is Histology?

study of tissues

5

What is Embryology?

study of developmental changes of the body before birth

6

What is Physiology?

the study of the function of the body

7

What is the life function for movement?

There are many types of movement within the body. On the cellular level, molecules move from one place to another. Blood moves from one part of the body to another. The diaphragm moves with every breath. The ability of muscle fibers to shorten and thus to produce movement is called contractility.

8

What is the life function for responsiveness?

Responsiveness or irritability is concerned with detecting changes in the internal or external environments and reacting to that change. It is the act of sensing a stimulus and responding to it.

9

What is the life function for digestion?

Digestion is the process of breaking down complex ingested foods into simple molecules that can be absorbed into the blood and utilized by the body.

10

What is the life function for metabolism?

Metabolism is a broad term that includes all the chemical reactions that occur in the body. One phase of metabolism is catabolism in which complex substances are broken down into simpler building blocks and energy is released.

11

What is the life function for dispose of wastes?

Excretion is the process that removes the waste products of digestion and metabolism from the body. It gets rid of by-products that the body is unable to use, many of which are toxic and incompatible with life.

12

What is the life function for reproduction?

For most people, reproduction refers to the formation of a new person, the birth of a baby. In this way, life is transmitted from one generation to the next through reproduction of the organism. In a broader sense, reproduction also refers to the formation of new cells for the replacement and repair of old cells as well as for growth. This is cellular reproduction. Both are essential to the survival of the human race.

13

What is the life function for growth?

Growth refers to an increase in size either through an increase in the number of cells or through an increase in the size of each individual cell. In order for growth to occur, anabolic processes must occur at a faster rate than catabolic processes.

14

Number 1 would be which of the following:
a. Digestive System
b. Integumentary System
c. Urinary System
d. Respiratory System
e. Cardiovascular System

Which organ system is this and what is it's function:
a. Lymphatic system/Immunity
b. Respiratory system
c. Male Reproductive System
d. Urinary system
e. Female Reproductive System
f. Digestive system

a. Lymphatic system/Immunity - picks up fluid leaks from blood vessels and returns it to blood. disposes of debris in the lymphatic stream. houses whit blood cells (lymphocytes) involved in immunity. the immune response mounts the attack against foreign substances within the body

26

Which organ system is this and what is it's function:
a. Lymphatic system/Immunity
b. Respiratory system
c. Male Reproductive System
d. Urinary system
e. Female Reproductive System
f. Digestive system

b. Respiratory system - keeps blood constantly supplied with oxygen and carbon dioxide. the gaseous exchanges occur through the walls of the air sacs of the lungs.

27

Which organ system is this and what is it's function:
a. Lymphatic system/Immunity
b. Respiratory system
c. Male Reproductive System
d. Urinary system
e. Female Reproductive System
f. Digestive system

f. Digestive system - breaks down food into absorbable units that enter the blood for distribution to body cells. indigestible foodstuffs are eliminated as feces.

28

Which organ system is this and what is it's function:
a. Lymphatic system/Immunity
b. Respiratory system
c. Male Reproductive System
d. Urinary system
e. Female Reproductive System
f. Digestive system

d. Urinary system - eliminates nitrogenous wastes from the body. regulates water, electrolyte and acid-base balance of the blood.

29

Which organ system is this and what is it's function:
a. Lymphatic system/Immunity
b. Respiratory system
c. Male Reproductive System
d. Urinary system
e. Female Reproductive System
f. Digestive system

c. Male Reproductive System - The male reproductive system includes the scrotum, testes, spermatic ducts, sex glands, and penis. These organs work together to produce sperm, the male gamete, and the other components of semen. These organs also work together to deliver semen out of the body and into the vagina where it can fertilize egg cells to produce offspring....

30

Which organ system is this and what is it's function:
a. Lymphatic system/Immunity
b. Respiratory system
c. Male Reproductive System
d. Urinary system
e. Female Reproductive System
f. Digestive system

e. Female Reproductive System - The female reproductive system includes the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina, vulva, mammary glands and breasts. These organs are involved in the production and transportation of gametes and the production of sex hormones. The female reproductive system also facilitates the fertilization of ova by sperm and supports the development of offspring during pregnancy and infancy....

31

What is the most abundant chemical in the body?

Water

32

What is the normal body temperature in a human?

Because the proper number varies from person to person, the number was rounded up to 37 degrees, which gave the value of 98.6. If not rounded, it gives the value of 97.9

33

What is homeostasis?

(1) The tendency of an organism or a cell to regulate its internal conditions, usually by a system of feedback controls, so as to stabilize health and functioning, regardless of the outside changing conditions

(2) The ability of the body or a cell to seek and maintain a condition of equilibrium or stability within its internal environment when dealing with external changes

34

Is this what the Homeostatic Control Mechanism looks like?
a. Yes
b. No

a. Yes - interactions among the elements of a homeostatic control system maintain stable internal conditions.

35

Which answer is correct for the picture?
a. Positive Feedback
b. Negative Feedback
c. none of the above

a. Positive Feedback - this is not very common. enhancement labor contractions by oxytocin. platelet plug formation and blood clotting.

36

Which answer is correct for the picture?
a. Positive Feedback
b. Negative Feedback
c. none of the above

b. Negative Feedback - this is very common. regulation of body temperature. regulation of blood volume by ADH (an endocrine system mechanism)
